Paul,

Before we put it on our website (but AFTER we gave it to NTSB!), I send
you Gordon's report on the accident of our Arrow.  With the exception of
the torque fluctuation damper, damaged by the prop strike, the engine
itself seems intact and able to run, if not airworthy.  It is being
repatriated to Geneva to be tried on the test bench and then thoroughly
inspected.  I'll keep you informed.

Thanks for the report Francois. That adds to our history on mufflers.

This is one advantage of an engine computer with data recording capabilities.
As I said don't put anything in the mufflers:)

Well you can put something in but it better be Inconel or 1/8" thick 321 SS
or thicker. Most packing will melt so don't bother with that.

I think if this happened at higher altitude and the engine continued to run
it would have eventually melted further and spit it self out the back.
The EGT's were heading north towards the end. The power would then recover somewhat.
